I am only angry for the way it was started, if she had said to me you know i can claim some money from the estate, i dont want to but he did owe my it could you give me something, i would have I was going to anyway it was wen she put it to us by saying i want 5000 or im going for it all thats what done it for us.
You've only got one parent left. The parent that fed and housed you without any help from the other one. Think about that the next time you want this blood money.0 -
No one is lecturing you, your Mum has no claim end of, I lost one of my brother late last year, he was married had no will (well no legal wiil) widow got/gets nothing, after the funeral expenses his children get a share of the estate.
What he was going to do is very different to what he did do.
Not sure why you don't just go and seek professional consulation from a solicitor :eek:
I know this going away from the OP's topic but that can't be right - the spouse is the first next-of-kin.0 -
Spouse should have inheritedCAB wrote:If there are surviving children, grandchildren or great grandchildren of the person who died and the estate is valued at more than £250,000, the partner will inherit:
- all the personal property and belongings of the person who has died, and
- the first £250,000 of the estate, and
- a life interest in half of the remaining estate. This means that if you are entitled to the life interest, you cannot get rid of or spend that part of the estate. You can, however, have the benefit of it during your lifetime.
If the estate is under £250,000 the spouse gets the lot.

The children didn't ask to be born, so they owe nothing, they have nothing to feel guilty about, if they want to offer the parent anything that is their choice only. :beer:0 -
